This photo taken on February 4, 2015 shows petitioner Xu Liangju's five-year-old son playing with a box of second-hand toys thrown out by more fortunate families in their room in Beijing. When Chinese President Xi Jinping pledged to "safeguard the rights of people in line with (the) law" in his New Year address, Xu Liangju was in a cell for seeking government action over the killing of her teenage son.
